 Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink? SmilingIdiot wrote: PusAddict wrote: I just got mine in about a week late and I am bummed. The box they shipped them in was crushed so the platic containers and little cards on the bottom were bent up. I would think that with as much as we pay for these little figures and the shipping costs they could do a better packing job like add some padding. The figures are OK but I was hoping to display them in the window box. As for standing I can't get mine to stand at all. Needless to say but I'm very disappointed with the lateness and packing. I hope they go back to bags and headers. I might consider trading if someone doesn't mind a crushed box and card. Did anyone else have this problem?  Really? My package came with bubble wrap inside and packed in a cardboard box (unlike some other people who just use the shipping envelopes). If the box was crushed, there is only so much you can do; it is the postal service fault, not Secret Base's. Mine as well, this was only the second time I order directly from SB and was surprised at how much detail went into the packaging. Contents were unscathed.

Anyone got a nice black box in prestine shape? I was a bit surprised myself as to how little padding was packed in the box. The figures and plastic boxes arrived ok. The only problem is the black box; the lid flap is starting to tear at the seam. It's super minor but have to be real gentle opening the box up as to not make it spread. I think I'll be leaving them in the boxes.

Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink? Secret base has truly lived up to its reputation as a great toy company. They are sending me replacement boxes and cards. Truly a class act. I let them know what happened and they are sending me pre folded boxes that I can fold myself and new cards. Very cool.

Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink? no if i remember right the nycc was dubbed the valentines edition, and was a tad lighter brown? and it had silver print... this looks slihtly darker with gold print... i can't remember which thread had a picture of the actual for sale sign at toy tokyo's booth with the listing of the salvation...
actually now thinking about it it might be the same color as the nycc, just with the gold print instead... the reason i speculate this is due ot the whole sdcc, to jp edition of the blue RI

Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink? Joe wrote: Yup, I'm wondering if a JPN LTD RI is next. I believe that in the SB flyer that was being passed out, there was mention of the "2nd Chance" to get the exclusive figures but that they may be different from the ones available at NYCC. That probably applies to the Rebel Ink as well.

Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink? The "Japan Ltd" ver SI is with Gold Print instead of Silver at NYCC. Hence at NYCC, its dubbed the "Silver Print" version and in Japan, the "Gold print" ver. I believe most who have sent your mail by now should get one. Now...wazz going to be up for RIs?  at NYCC its "Premium Black"... in japan ?? Premium white? Non-premium black? more limited this time in japan, reversing SDCC? remain the same?  we will see soon.
